The PNC explained that its demand was to ensure that all minor errors across the four sets of nomination forms and not just one are carefully and thoroughly addressed.<\/span><\/p>\n

The EC gave the PNC\u00a0a single copy of the nomination forms despite the fact the party submitted the forms in quadruplicate.<\/span><\/p>\n

The party explained that it would be unable to effectively correct the errors without the originals or copies of all the nomination forms submitted in triplicate.<\/span><\/p>\n
